So how long have you owned your current classic Ford/s?

A Mk2 Escort Ghia was my first car back in 1992. I have had a few Escorts come and go since then but have held on to my RS which I bought as a 21st birthday present to myself in 1995. [:p] So, 16 years and counting... I have no plans to sell it.

got my sundowner, march 1999, as a rolling shell in excellent condition.
got in running on my 21st bday 3 months later, it was a daily driver till late 2008. it came off the road late feb 2010 for a major rebuild.

heres a pic of it the day i got it running


no plans on selling it, just plan on getting it back on the road with forced induction

Orange mk2 1300xl 2dr bought in 1995, converted it to 2lt plus all usual mods of the day, rear disk, 5sp, lsd, tramp rods, capri struts, venteds, volvo 4spots, Q/rack etc,etc. Still own but is very due for a Tarmac spec rebuild either Zetec or Duratec. the car never let me down or broke down , rare for Escorts !!

I've had my Cortina since about October 1993[:u]...my uncle gave it to me to practice on during my pre apprenticeship course and the rest is history[:p]

June 93 is when i bought my MK2 RS from Jbcars.

Nice hair Glenn! bwahahaha [88]

11 Years and counting...

I first bought my capri in nov.76, sold it in 80 and bought it back again in 05.

I got my in 2002 when I was 14, Im nearly 23 now.

Just turned 14, gathered up all my money and bought a rolling shell off a mate, he felt sorry and chucked in a screwed engine so Ive had it for 4 years now, been on the road with said stuffed engine for nearly two.
